FAS Convict Ship 362.41 Blenheim arrived 1837 at VDL Prosopography Index

This collection provides a complete list of convict names and sufficient biographical data to enable unambiguous identification of convicts who were disembarked from convict ship "Blenheim" at Van Diemen's Land on 1837-07-16 This includes, where known, an estimation of the year of birth, place of birth, where and when convicted, the sentence, the date of arrival in the colony and the convict's age on arrival. The brief convict biographical data provided in this collection serves as an index into the far more extensive set of life course events which are recorded in the prosopgraphy database built by the Founders and Survivors project. Basic details for this ship: * ship name (as known in VDL records): Blenheim * sailed date : 1837-03-15 from Woolwich * arrival date : 1837-07-16 * population (per Bateson's The Convict Ships): Embarked:210 Men ; Deaths:6 Men ; Landed:204(VDL) Men Data for convicts listed in this collection comes from the source which has been determined by Founders and Survivors to form the "base population" for this ship. Further information as to the methodology and the linkage of multiple sources is detailed in the narrative format of the collection. The matching and linkage of additional sources about Tasmanian convict's is the subject of ongoing research. This collection may be repuplished regularly, and in additional formats and with specific user interfaces, to enable public participation in the quality of convict matching and linkage -- see for example the EXPERIMENTAL linkage.htm format for this collection. Linkage for ships arriving at Norfolk Island and Port Philip is incomplete. This ship's prosopography index is published in a directory named "362.41" (the ship's project id). Three three different file formats provided: -- (default; suitable for web browsing) HTML: world wide web hypertext markup language format which provides a "narrative" view of the collection (index.htm); and -- (structured prosopgraphy: persons and events) XML / TEIp5 : Text Encoding Initiative (version p5) XML format which provides the underlying XML database for this collection (index.xml); and -- [Not yet available] (row/column flat) simple list of convict names in a flat file, tab delimited, suitable for Excel, Stata, SPSS or database usage (index.tab). See notes below.本数据集收录了完整的囚犯名单与详实的生平资料，可精准识别1837年7月16日于范迪门领地（Van Diemen's Land）由"布伦海姆号"（Blenheim）囚犯运输船卸岸的所有囚犯。 若资料可查，本数据集还包含囚犯的出生年份估算值、出生地、定罪地点与时间、刑罚内容、抵达流放殖民地的日期，以及囚犯抵境时的年龄。本数据集收录的精简囚犯生平资料，可作为索引，检索由"创始者与幸存者项目（Founders and Survivors project）"构建的人物志数据库（prosopography database）中收录的海量人生轨迹事件。 本流放船的基本信息如下： * 【范迪门领地（VDL）档案所载船名】：布伦海姆号（Blenheim） * 【起航日期】：1837年3月15日，从伍尔维奇起航 * 【抵境日期】：1837年7月16日 * 【人员统计（引自贝茨顿所著《流放船档案》（The Convict Ships））】：登船人数：210名男性；死亡人数：6名男性；最终在范迪门领地登陆人数：204名男性 本数据集收录的囚犯数据，来自"创始者与幸存者项目（Founders and Survivors project）"认定的本船"基准人口"数据源。关于多源数据整合的方法与关联逻辑，详见本数据集的叙事性说明文档。目前针对塔斯马尼亚囚犯的额外数据源匹配与关联工作仍在持续研究中。本数据集将定期更新发布，同时会推出适配不同场景的格式与专属用户界面，以吸纳公众参与囚犯匹配与关联工作的质量优化——例如可参考本数据集的**实验性关联页面（EXPERIMENTAL linkage.htm）**。目前针对抵达诺福克岛与菲利普港的船只的数据源关联工作仍不完善。 本船的人物志索引（prosopography index）以编号为"362.41"的目录发布（即本船项目ID）。本数据集提供三种不同格式的文件： -- （默认格式，适用于网页浏览）超文本标记语言（HTML）：采用万维网超文本标记语言格式，以"叙事式"视图展示本数据集（对应文件为index.htm）； -- （结构化人物志：人物与事件）XML/TEIp5：采用文本编码倡议第五版（Text Encoding Initiative p5，TEIp5）可扩展标记语言格式，为本数据集提供底层XML数据库支持（对应文件为index.xml）； -- 【暂未上线】（行列扁平化）纯文本列表：采用制表符分隔的扁平化纯文本文件，收录囚犯名单，适用于Excel、Stata、SPSS或数据库导入使用（对应文件为index.tab），详见下文说明。
